A Little Frenchy With Delamere Bouquet

My eyes have been glued to the TV watching Hurricane Dorian coverage and it is getting pretty depressing, so I thought I would do something I enjoy doing for a change. And what would that be but to tablescape….yea!

I pulled out my Spode Delamere Bouquet Dinnerware set from the family room buffet cabinet and here they are! I don't think I have ever set a table with these before.

I just gathered anything with a little purple around the house and came out with this as a centerpiece. The topiary made it seem Frenchy so that became my theme.

Don't you just love the face of the bust? She is so pretty and delicate.

I think I bought this round crocheted tablecloth from Grand Cayman. There is a linen store there that John and I never miss whenever we go there.

I love the color of these plates. I think purple is a good transition color from summer to fall.

I told you it's Frenchy:-)

I have not posted for such a long time and I hope to visit a lot of my friends. Let's pray for everyone in the hurricane's path. Please stay safe if you are one of them.

Thank you for those hosting these parties.

Ooh La La! I love Paris!

Presenting my Parisian table creation!

I set it in the breakfast nook because I only have a service for 4 set. I have a bigger set in black and white that has a slightly different pattern but still with Paris theme but I still have not located them in the garage.

I really like the color of this set with pink and green. Here is a stack of dinner, salad and a dessert plate.

I added some floral place card holders in terracotta pots.

I love these flatware set with fleur de lis handles. I got them from Horchow many years ago. I love anything with fleur de lis because it was our insignia in high school. And it is Frenchy so it will blend with my theme here. You will notice a fleur de lis finial on my centerpiece too.
